→Fired From MSNBC: add Colbert's reply
Less than a week after Comcast was approved to purchase MSNBC, Keith Olbermann was fired January 21, 2011. Official word states Comcast has nothing to do with the firing. He was their top-rated host so the statement is likely false. [[Glenn Beck]] predicted his firing months before it happened, which led Olbermann to mock Beck as not knowing anything about television and made him his ''worst person in the world''. <ref>[http://www.mediaite.com/tv/glenn-beck-keith-olbermann-is-the-biggest-pain-in-the-ass-in-the-world/ Glenn Beck: “Keith Olbermann Is The Biggest Pain In The A** In The World”, Mediaite, January 24, 2011]</ref>

[[Stephen Colbert]] made laughs at Keith's expense. A clip of Olbermann saying ''this is the last edition of Countdown'' for which Colbert replies "Well we finally know what they were counting down to." <ref>[http://dailycaller.com/2011/01/25/colbert-channels-keith-olbermug/ Colbert channels ‘Keith Olbermug’, KeithOlbermann.com, January 25, 2011]</ref>
